Mission Statement
Families in the Napa Valley continue to struggle to find and pay for childcare in the Napa Valley despite understanding the cost and service to be completely necessary. Most families now require dual incomes to stay at a 'middle class’ level in California and we can no longer follow the antiquated model of having the woman stay at home to care for the children. Instead, we are forced to pretend our children don’t exist before the age of five. Similarly, childcare providers are struggling to stay open amidst the rising costs of living within the Napa Valley and the subsequent labor shortage. Without federal funding, daycare centers struggle with insurance costs, stringent rules, and the cost of employeeing a large number of teachers. The time is now to make a change, and I am committed to doing my part to make the lives of teachers and parents just a little bit easier.
Description
It Takes a Valley is a startup nonprofit focused on serving residents of the Napa Valley in California. Our goal is to raise money to provide to families in search of financial assistance to help pay for childcare. If our children are cared for, more mothers and fathers can return to work and bolster the economy from the ground up. At It Takes a Valley, we believe the most integral citizens are the smallest ones.
